This Association cuts across:
- Age differences
- Rank differences
- Race/gender differences
- Socio/economic differences
The FMDA is an association where Marines and Sailors who now serve, or who have served, come together as a “Family of Warriors” and share that unexplained quality that makes us stand apart, known as “Esprit de Corps.”
Our annual reunions and anniversary celebrations provide a venue for all generations of Warriors to gather and enjoy the Family of Arms that our beloved Division represents. We honor our past heroes and salute the current generation that is today writing history in Iraq and Afghanistan… and on unknown shores tomorrow.
Our Outreach Program pledges that we, the “Older Brothers” of our family stand ready to mentor our younger brothers and sisters and assist their children with our Scholarship Program and a helping hand from our local chapters. We stand ready to help them relocate after their active service, find employment and receive benefits of service that have been promised. The First Marine Division Association Scholarship Fund Inc is a registered501(c)(3) tax exempt organization. You can download the IRS determination letter here.
